# Whimsical Childlike Lookbooks The Lesia Paramonova 2013-14 Collection is Inspired by Uniforms By Meghan Young | Published 2013-05-06 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lesia-paramonova-201314 References: [stylebubble](http://www.stylebubble.co.uk/style_bubble/2013/05/lost-in-the-woods.html) & [lesiales.tumblr](http://lesiales.tumblr.com/) Simple, whimsical and childlike, the Lesia Paramonova 2013-14 lookbook captures the charm of innocence that the fashion designs evoke themselves. Considering that they were inspired by the uniforms worn by Soviet teenage school girls, the direction the designer took is more than appropriate. Juxtaposed with a fantastical woodland theme, the line is sure to cast a spell on just about anyone. With girly flourishes in the forms of bows, stockings and pinafore detailing, the Lesia Paramonova 2013-14 lookbook incorporates imagery of plants merging with animals to round off the surreal theme. The designer writes, "It is, in some way, nostalgia on an image of the Soviet school student, but changed and passed through a prism of modern perception." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Whimsical Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in whimsical fashion can include incorporating playful and childlike elements into adult clothing, creating a unique and nostalgic aesthetic. - **Uniform-inspired Designs:** Creating fashion collections inspired by uniforms can offer disruptive innovation opportunities by reimagining traditional uniform elements in a modern and artistic way. - **Fantastical Themes:** Incorporating fantastical themes into fashion lookbooks allows for disruptive innovation opportunities to create captivating visual storytelling and transport consumers into imaginative worlds. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The whimsical childlike lookbook trend presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the fashion industry, allowing designers to tap into nostalgia and create unique clothing collections. - **Photography:** The whimsical childlike lookbooks trend poses disruptive innovation opportunities in the photography industry by exploring creative ways to capture and convey the charm and innocence of fashion designs. - **Art and Design:** The whimsical childlike lookbooks trend offers disruptive innovation opportunities in the art and design industry, where artists can create visually captivating and imaginative pieces inspired by fashion collections. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Uniform-Inspired Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-drama-school.md) - [Scrapbook-Inspired Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creative-class-uniform.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Conceptual Memory-Themed Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paranoid-fw25.md) - [Girlhood-Inspired Clothing Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peachy-dens-sweet-cheeks.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Offbeat Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by.md) - [Whimsical Childlike Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-eternal-child.md) - [High School-Inspired Autumn Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/erl-2.md)
